Orpheus thinks this is cool


OK, so Orpheus is too busy looking marvelous to have an opinion and it's really just the opinion of the Marketing Director.

Click Here to read the Telegraph article about the Heritage Orchestra, a really edgy group of (mostly) 20-somethings that are taking classical music into the clubs.

Now, this might raise the eyebrows of traditionalists and purists and, I admit, that I would be skeptical until I heard the product but I think it's fantastic that these guys and gals are trying to keep the living, breathing thing that should be classical music.

If they can get kids excited about classical music (as the article suggests) then I say, "more power to ya!"

And that's my $.02 worth. Discover something new today.
